  1. Steel wool is actually some useful stuff and very flammable. I saw on one of those survival shows that you can use steel wool and a 9-volt battery to light a fire. Just rub the posts of the battery across a fluffed up pad of steel wool and it sparks to life. It'll burn hot and long enough to dry out whatever kindling you can find. I carry some now in the truck just in case.

    Just don't add peroxide....Pretty interesting that they used peroxide to fuel that thing, wonder how many mishaps they had correcting the mixture- peroxide can be very dangerous if played with

  2. No big It happens woulda been easier had my mother waited a year or 2 to buy the car lol. I think GTs had that hood too Some with the Scoop some without

    The hood scoop went on the car in 01 as did the rear spoiler change, the rear of the 99 cobra kit might have to be modified for your car a little(dont really remember) I think it has the cut out for the dual exhaust, the V6 rear doesn't have any cutouts(as you know).The power problems for the 99 Cobra was due to a problem with the manifold that sparked a recall and the power problem was fixed .I would also love to see a conversion kit so I could make a copy of my 1:1 2000 Mustang GT.I would also love t osee a conversion kit to make the 03-04 Cobra, great car can make 400 plus HP with just a exhaust change and a tune close to 500HP with a pulley change on the supercharger- there are a few Cobras in my Mustang Club that make Dyno proven 600 plus horsepower with easy mods on them

  3. Just read the post from the other forum and I think it's sad that one person has a bad experience and right away they want to jump up and scream fraud and flame someone,

    although it's been a while I have purchased items from Don, the quality was excellent and the service was bar none- he gave me his number and we spoke on the phone several times to discuss products he was selling and the arrival time of my products-

    I was also the one who started the thread requesting the fox body mustangs( ironically due to hand injury I still have not purchased one from him) if I did not have confidence in him I would not have asked him to make a product. So for those who start flaming and posting links to fraud alerts lets try and realise that the postal service as well as other delivery services may also play a role in issues with deliveries and there may be circumstances beyond anyone's contol

    I know it's not my fight but can't stand when folks jump up and try to bring someone down just because of one bad experience.....

    BTW Don time for a 99-04 mustang GT and a 99,03-04 cobra kit as well

    Keep on bringing us some new stuff Don,

    thanks

  4. Amazing work/detail

    I know this has been covered a million and one times(now a million and two ;) )Sorry did a search but couldnt find any tutorials

    but what thickness did you use for the leather and how did you get it to stay on without any glue "bleeding through", lastly where would you get leather pieces like that?

  5. Very nice stuff! I'm really digging the rims on the 55 Chev truck. Welcome!

    Chris

    What he said :lol:

    which pegasus wheels are those they look like holli's but then they don't(they almost look like they are aluminum and spokes look wider)

    keep up the great work love all of your builds

  6. Amazing job-

    All of the custom touches you added go great with the car ,gives it that modern meets old school look

    BTW where did you get the wheels ?

    Here are pics. of my '66 Chevelle. Gregg got to take some pics in ATL and had posted them in the Contest and Shows section of the forum so I apologize for any redundancies. I didn't get a chance to take pics. until today. It isn't 100% complete, but good enough for government work. I hope you guys like it:

  7. Rollin, you can get the Lightning kit in Micheals craft store for $7 or so with the 50% off coupon and get your supercharger for less than a resin one with shipping. i don't seewhy you couldn't adapt it to a Corvette with some work.

    very nice conversion work on the Mustang GT with the Lightning supercharger, very nice!

    Dave

    Where is everyone getting these coupons for michaels? I live in Connecticut(been here 2 years) and have not seen one coupon for Michaels yet

  8. one of the top metal guys like Bob Dudek could probably cut some of these from aluminum for you for a healthy fee. they would look very nice though. the other thing to watch for, especially when it comes to anything "Shelby" or "Cobra" is that Carroll Shelby is very quick to burn you for using his name on products he doesn't have control over or hasn't authorized.

    Dave

    Never thought about Shelby name thing :( -Your right ok Mr. Shelby they are now called melby mazor wheels changed the name to protect my innocent butt :unsure:

    How can I get in touch with Bob to get pricing for some Melby Mazors?
